"One of the best things about working with Conductr is that I donâ€™t have to worry about whatâ€™s happening on the laptop screen. This allows me to physically eliminate the laptop from the scenario. It may sound silly, but it is an important breakthrough in terms of performativity and aesthetics. Conductr killed the â€˜laptop musicianâ€™ stigma."

Edu Comelles is not just a talent off of the street. He has had an immense amount of formal education in the music and media field. Edu Comelles has a PhD in Fine Arts, MSc in Sound Design (Edinburgh University), and MA in Visual and Media Arts from the Polytechnic University of Valencia. He is the founder and director of Audiotalaia, a platform dedicated to the dissemination and production of experimental music in Spain. He also co-directs LEA Ediciones with Juanjo Palacios, a broadcasting platform focused on field recordings.

Comelles has been working on sound composition since 2006. His work has been published by several labels such as Resting Bell (Berlin), Test Tube (Portugal), Impulsive Habitat (Portugal) or Audiotalaia (Spain). He has been at festivals in Stockholm, Vienna, Madrid, Mexico, Bristol, London, Valencia and Barcelona. He is currently involved in several individual and collective artistic projects that focus on soundscape and composition.

Every artist is unique, so their tools should be as well. Thatâ€™s why Conductr is an app that musicians and DJs alike can design according to their specific needs. It works as a modular environment where you can add the modules you want in order to control Ableton Live or Traktor.
Conductr is designed to provide artists with a different kind of experience: one that makes sense on an iPad. It is not about mimicking hardware or desktop software, but to offer a 100% mobile-oriented user experience.
Conductr is made by musicians for musicians.
